Washington musicians cut the Opera some slack

The DC Federation of Musicians has given the Kennedy Center and Washington National Opera a year’s extension on the current agreement with the Opera musicians, with some minor adjustments.

‘We were cognizant of the Opera’s need to fill the leadership vacancy created by [Executive Director] Michael Mael’s departure,’ said Orchestra Committee Chair Peter de Boor. ‘We hope that the additional year will give the Opera some breathing room, so that the opera season cuts we conceded in previous agreements will turn out to be only temporary.’
